I was wondering if you were going to put the characters from your Whyborne and Griffin series in Hogwarts Houses which would you choose?
Jordan L. Hawk
There was a discussion of this on my FB group, and although literally everyone else thought Whyborne should be in Ravenclaw, I believe he's a quintessential Gryffindor. Obviously he's brilliant, but to me his bravery is his defining characteristic. I mean, book one he tries to throw himself into a hole in reality to save the world, that's pretty nuts.
Griffin and Iskander are both Hufflepuffs of the finest order. As for Christine, I'm not entirely sure. Like Whyborne she's got Ravenclaw tendencies, but she's had to be courageous to get where she is. And there's a hearty dose of Slytherin practicality ("I'll just shoot Marian in the head and solve all our problems"). In the end I'd probably put her in Gryffindor with Whyborne, but I think there's a good argument otherwise too.
For the curious: I myself am a Slytherin.

I've just read Threshold. I still feel breathless a day later. Was H.P. Lovecraft a strong influence on your writing? Miskatonic University is right from his world. The monsters also have a strong Lovecraftian feel to them. Monsters as I always imagined them. Not the nice, neat mummies and vampires. I love Whyborne and Griffin and bought the whole series for Christmas. Thank you for your wonderful imagination.

Hi! I am kinda late but it's been more than a year and SPECTR still has no more books and I just finished 3 #5 after re-reading, thinking it's going to tie off the storyline - and the opposite happened. Can I look forward to anything in the future or is that it??? Thank you!
